North Georgia Gal's Financial Awakening

Trying to Make Smarter Decisions Day by Day

Where to Begin...it is hard to believe that it has been 9 years since I started this Blog. You guys have always been here supporting me and cheering me on.

I am in the process of refinancing my LOC into a mortgage, rolling my credit card debt into it. Will probably then close all of my credit cards after that.

I still have my budget in place for a couple of months out, but I still have to make changes to it.

I hope to sell my house in about 6 months, and move closer to my kids, about an hour away. I will still commute to work because it would only be about 40 minutes. But this can't happen until my responsibility to my mom is done, she is close to moving in with my niece, but who knows when that will happen.

Rough Weekend

September 30th, 2013 at 09:05 am

I had a rough weekend. My depression reared its ugly head and caused me to get nothing done. If I had had a tv in my bedroom that worked I wouldn't have gotten out of bed. It all started when I got into trouble at work as I was packing up to leave. I won't go into details but it worried me all weekend long.

Sunday was a no gas nsd. DD didn't go to work because she wasn't feeling good so neither one of us used any gas. We didn't even leave the house.

I cashed in another $13 survey money. Will send it to the credit card as soon as it shows up in my account. that makes $56.60 to the credit card company, in addition to my regular $50 payment. The balance on this card is $621...some of you wanted to know. The surveys have slowed down alot and right now I don't dare try to do one at work. So it will probably be a while before I cash out anything else from that website. I have accumalated $50 credit on another website, but they have to verify the results. It could take 2-6 weeks for all of the funds to be verified but when they are...that amount is being transferred to the credit card as well.

I'm sorry that you had a rough weekend. ((Hugs)) I'm glad the surveys are working for you and I'm sure they are done best at home in your free time. You could be out from under that card in six months at the rate you are going, and even if it takes a year that is okay too. Keep up the great work!!

I'm sorry too that it was a rough weekend. As a parent of a child with anxiety, I see how tiresome it can be, both physically and mentally. Take good care of yourself and great job on the snowflakes to the card!
